Google data center outage on June 2, 2019
On Sunday, June 2, 2019, a server configuration change caused a 4 hour outage for Google services in the eastern United States. According to the Inside Google Cloud article about the incident this resulted in some service being or not available for that region. Google reports YouTube by itself saw a 2.5% drop in views during this time. Other sources, such as an article from 9to5Google reports that YouTube’s global views went down by 10%, which is much higher than Google. This would be a significant loss in ads revenue. And that is only one of a many services that were affected. Others reported not being able to control their own thermostat, since Nest relies google services affect in the outage. I imagine the loss in customer good will is as much, if not more of a concern.

Carbon footprint of a data center Data Center : Volkswagen Location : Rjukan , Norway Year Build : 2019
IT load ($/kW): 2750 Yearly CO2 Foot Print : 0 Equivalent in car : 0
As per volkswagenag.com news( Rjukan/Wolfsburg, 2019-06-18), this data center is “100 percent powered by hydropower – resulting in a savings of more than 5,800 tons of CO2 per year”

Solar Energy
Renewable energy is the alternate form of energy which is from natural sources and filled up naturally e.g Solar Energy. Solar energy is light and heat from the sun which is naturally available . Solar energy is converted to electricity using solar panels which are installed in the open places where they can receive direct sunlight . Photovoltaic cells in the solar panel absorbs sunlight and create direct current (DC) which again gets converted to alternate current (AC). Two most common way of installing solar panels to generate solar energy are Solar Rooftop and Solar Farms. In Solar rooftop solution ,solar panels are installed on top of the house/building where direct sun light can be received while Solar farms are the open space of land where Solar panels are installed. An example of data center with Solar renewable energy is Apple data center in Maiden NC.

North Carolina State
North Carolina’s renewable energy consumption is growing fast , as per Arcadia Power blog on North Carolina renewable energy “In 2015, approximately 7% of North Carolina’s energy mix came from renewable sources such as hydroelectric, biomass, and solar. Though mainly producing hydroelectric energy, North Carolina ranks 3rd in the country in installed solar capacity.” This blog further stated that “North Carolina has already installed over 2,436 MW of solar energy, and is expected to more than double its capacity over the next 5 years by adding 3,656 MW of solar electric capacity. Wind power, on the other hand, just recently took off. In 2015, North Carolina started construction on the state’s first commercial-scale wind farm, which will be the largest wind farm in the Southeast to date.”
North Carolina’s energy conservation efforts have helped state rank 2nd position in installed solar power generating capacity which is over 4,400 megawatts.

Prosa, Santa Fe, Mexico data center outage
August 2019 , there was a data center outage in Mexico which caused entire banking system to halt ,impacting several customers. The data center outage happened at Prosa, Santa Fe, Mexico. Prosa is an electronic transaction services firm which process Credit/Debit card payments in Mexico. Major banking systems of the country use this electronic payment service . The services were interrupted when an electrical fault in data center caused outage and shut off making any payment , purchase or ATM use. This outage remained for three hours and had impact across the Mexico where customers of major banks and supermarket were not able to make payment during the rush hours of weekend.
Details of revenue impact and customer count of this outage are not available online . 3.6.6.1 References 1. https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/news/banking-services-across-mexico-go-down-due-prosa-data-center- outage/ 2. https://techerati.com/news-hub/data-centre-outage-mexico-banks-banking-prosa/

FrankFurt 3 Data center is handled and managed by a company called e-shelter whose parent organization is NTT communications. It is the 3rd Data Center set up by e-shelter in FrankFurt after the FrankFurt 1 and FrankFurt 2. It encloses a total area about 12000 square meters(4000 in the first and approximately 8000 in the second phase of construction). FrankFurt 3 Data center was completed by the end of 2015. It utlises a electric Power capacity of 90000 Kilo Watts.[1]
The main advantage of FrankFurt 3 data center is that it uses a method of hybrid cooling instead of the traditional free coolin methods. This has contributed to a reduction in the cooling costs by one-third. Furthermore, since it makes use of the renewable energy sources it has a C02 and radioactive emission of 0mg/KWh. The cost of per KW/H is around 0.2$ [2]. Since the Data Center operates for 24 hours a day, it comes to around less Half a million per day and costs about 165 million per year. All these facts are as per the official website of e-shelter.
